BrightPath New Milford Child Care Center

What our families think about BrightPath New Milford

"My daughter started attending BrightPath at the beginning of March. I have noticed such positive changes in her behavior, manners, emotions, and knowledge. Most importantly, she always looks forward to going to school. BrightPath provides the perfect balance between structure and fun while fostering a child's independence and addressing their personal needs. I have truly never seen my daughter as happy and excited as when we pull into the school parking lot. Her face lights up as soon as she sees Kim, their stellar Director, and Miss Sydney, her amazing teacher. BrightPath offers a phenomenal curriculum and emphasizes the importance of spending time outside. They provide a great outdoor play area with numerous toys, as well as easels and boards for outdoor learning. We could not be happier with our experience at BrightPath. I have never encountered an educational facility more deserving of a FIVE STAR review than BrightPath New Milford."

"Our baby has been attending BrightPath’s New Milford center from the day it opened in March 2023, and it’s been the perfect entry to care outside the home. The teachers have made him (and us) feel incredibly welcome and have organized lots of great activities – art, music, reading, outdoor play – to help with his physical, social and emotional learning. Kym, the director, has been really responsive to any questions or concerns we have about our child, and we’ve felt listened to and supported as parents. It’s been a great partnership so far, and we’re so pleased that our son is benefitting from their expertise in early childhood development."
